    In my opinion, no brand has blue dials like IWC. Different shades of blue, but all wonderful.
    I had my eye on the BP Petit Prince, but didn't bought it as I had already a BP in the collection, and I had already blue dialed watches.
    So if another BP or a blue dial would come my way, it had to be a special one...
    A few months ago, we had the sad news about Giovanni. As some of you know, Giovanni bought the BP Petit Prince that belonged to Kevin. A watch that belonged to two good forum friends, had to stay with the forum collectors, so I bought it. It is the watch that had by far the most wrist-time since I got it during the Amsterdam BBGTG.
    So in honor of these two friends, let's make a post with pictures of blue dials.
    Here are mine.

    tonny, congrats on your BP Petit Prince with a very special and meaningful history.

    here's my BP blue...

    Here is my only blue dialed watch, my latest. The blue is indeed remarkable, as it it not so remarkable, noticeable, it is very subdued with a surprising burst of light blue under certain light conditions. So, now I really am a BlueMan.

    Great initiative Tonny!

    A honor to be the host of Kevin's & Gio's BP.

    Just got one blue, unfortunately picture quality is not the best...

    Tonny, congrats on the new addition. It's a special and terrific IWC. Enjoy it as I know you will.

    My one and only blue IWC:

    It's not easy to catch to special IWC blue dials in photographs as most of us can attest.

    IWC blue needs to have much wrist time.
    Congrats, Tonny!

    Great choice, Tonny.

    While I have had quite a few, I'm down to only two in blue.
